General presentation

There is no sector of activity that is not affected by the creation and development of connected objects and Internet of Things (IoT).

Today, it is increasingly important for companies to propose such devices and associated applications, to create real added-value for their offering of products or services.

This course in designing IoT solutions develops the skills needed to undertake IoT projects, step by step, as a project owner or project manager. It is oriented towards practice and implementation; in their professional thesis, students may tackle a real-life issue that they have encountered, whether in their working or personal life.

It is taught part-time, so that participants can continue to work while studying. It is offered in blended-learning format, combining remote sessions and in-person classes.
